I have a sub class of an object. The sub class has no additional

get "selector not recognized". Is there a way to do this? I can do
this in C++.

Sorry not understanding you fully... oh and please start class names with upper case letters. :)

Example bellow if needed

@interface myParent : NSObject {
        int somedata
}

- (int) getSomeDataPlusOne; //

@end


In the main body of code

        myParent * myObj =  [[myParent alloc] init];

        mySub * mysub = (mySub *) myObj;

        int val = [mysub getSomeDataPlusOne]; // It chokes here with
"selector not recognized"

Now you have me even more confused (omitted to much context)... :)

Is "myParent" class the super class of "mySub" class? ...and you want
a method implemented by "mySub" class to call a method provided by
"mySub" superclass?

If so note you can message "super"...

@interface SuperClass : NSObject {
}
- (void) doThis;
@end

@interface SubClass : SuperClass {
}
- (void) doThat;
@end

@implementation SubClass
- (void) doThat
{
   [super doThis];
}
